Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"I cannot sufficiently extol the genius with which de Hamal managed
our flight. How clever in him to select the night of the fete, when
Madame (for he knows her habits), as he said, would infallibly be
absent at the concert in the park. I suppose _you_ must have gone
with her. I watched you rise and leave the dormitory about eleven
o'clock. How you returned alone, and on foot, I cannot conjecture.
That surely was _you_ we met in the narrow old Rue St. Jean? Did
you see me wave my handkerchief from the carriage window?
